Steven Pressfield Quotes
We Do Not Overidentify With Our Jobs. We May Take Pride In Our Work, We May Stay Late And Come In On Weekends, But We Recognize That We Are Not Our Job Descriptions. The Amateur, On The Other Hand, Overidentifies With His Avocation, His Artistic Aspiration. He Defines Himself By It. He Is A Musician, A Painter, A Playwright. Resistance Loves This. Resistance Knows That The Amateur Composer Will Never Write His Symphony Because He Is Overly Invested In Its Success And Overterrified Of Its Failure. The Amateur Takes It So Seriously It Paralyzes Him.
